  • Troy · 1 year ago
    Wow, you have just revolutionized my Youtube viewing experience. Thanks for that, I stumbled this post for you :).

    It seems to have become popular, so you should be seeing a great deal of traffic right now. Be sure you're ready for it... if your bandwidth is close to running out you can submit a support ticket to Byet and they will kindly add more.

    I just tried about twenty videos at random, but was unable to see any difference in quality in any of them. Can you give us an example of one where there is a visible quality difference

    Cool - do you know of any other values you can pass? Is it a straightforward variable, where a higher number means higher quality, or does 18 have a special significance, if so, what are the other options?
  • digitalbrian · 1 year ago
    No 18 seem to be the number, I tried other ones but 18 is the only one that actually create a link beneath the window offering you to go back to less quality.

    this isn't really needed anymore.

    1)Go to YouTube > Account > Video Playback Quality > Select High Quality

    2)???

    3)Profit

    Thank you, I didnt know about that, YT is not very good about telling about new features.
  • daniel · 1 year ago
    You can also change to high quality in your account settings
  • digitalbrian · 1 year ago
    Yes I just learned about that, my problem with that is that my bandwidth
    varies a lot and I am not ready to commit to all High Quality all the time,
    plus I dont really need to watch the average vlog in high quality. thank you
    for telling me about this though, I appreciate it.
